Episode 9: Set the bowling free!

Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must throw something almost to the centre of a target, open the golden present, create a collision, incorporate keywords into acceptance speeches, build a replica of Babben’s bust out of crispbread, build and travel across a bridge, and throw items into buckets. Also, two contestants must attempt to memorise the most digits of pi to decide the winner of the episode.

Title context

Eric Stern exclaims “I set the bowling free!” after dropping a bowling ball off of a balcony and breaking it open, during the ‘Create a collision’ task.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

What have we learned today? Well, going from ‘B’ to ‘A’ is not the same as going from ‘A’ to ‘B’. Sing first before opening presents. And the bowling has finally been freed!
